Abstract (en)

A mobile wireless communications device includes a near field communications (NFC) device, a motion sensing device, and a memory configured to store access information for each of a plurality of payment accounts. A processor cooperates with the NFC device, the motion sensing device, and the memory. The processor is configured to recognize a movement pattern based upon the motion sensing device, determine a given payment account from among the plurality thereof based upon the movement pattern, and send corresponding access information for the given payment account to a transaction terminal via the NFC device. In some applications, the processor may determine a given payment account from among the plurality thereof based upon an image associated with a transaction terminal and captured by an optical sensor, and send corresponding access information for the given payment account to the transaction terminal via the NFC device.
